PORTLAND, Ore. (December, 2015) – Ronald McDonald House Charities® (RMHC) of Oregon and Southwest Washington is pleased to honor Marquis Companies as its 2015 Partner of Distinction. This award recognizes a company that has made tremendous contributions to RMHC by creating a significant and lasting difference to the lives of families with seriously ill children who stay at Portland’s two Ronald McDonald Houses.
Marquis Companies has been a RMHC partner for many years – bringing gifts at the holidays, making meals throughout the year, filling welcome bags, raising funds, and lending a hand as RMHC renovates and remodels its 18-year-old East House. Marquis has also been a leader in guiding RMHC’s growth and ever-increasing support for families through board leadership. The company was formally awarded at RMHC’s annual Heats & Hands Gala on October 10.
“It is hard to fully capture, in words or in dollars, the beautiful impact that Marquis has had on the thousands of seriously ill children and families who come to stay and heal at our ‘home away from home’. We simply couldn’t do what we do without our 2015 Partner of Distinction – Marquis Companies,” said Jessica Jarratt Miller, CEO of RMHC of Oregon and Southwest Washington.
